Fukushima: "An Insult to the Pacific" by Arnie Gundersen
Talking about the summer 2020 olympics, the safety (not safe) of
Tokyo,

TEPCO wanting to abandon the
Fukushima Daiichi site and just let the reactors melt down, The Abe cabinet, 35 million reside in Tokyo, the

Mother Nature, cesium 134 found along with cesium
137 in gardens of vancouver, the half life of cesium 137 is 30 years (gone in
300 years) and half life of cesium 134 is 2 years (signature of Fukushima Daiichi nuclear fallout)

Truly Frightening”:
Doctors being threatened for linking illnesses to Fukushima —
Strange tumors, kids dying, pets dying — Much higher incidences of whole range of health problems reported — Experts:
1,000,000 cancers, plus many other ailments possible (

Alex Smith, host of RadioEcoshock (at 10:30 in): We’ve heard almost nothing about the impacts [of the Fukushima catastrophe] on people in that region.
There are accounts coming out of there of strange tumors, kids dying, pets dying — what have you heard? Can we ever expect an honest accounting from
Japanese authorities?
Arnie Gundersen, nuclear engineer (emphasis added):
That’s a pretty good summary, frankly. We continue to get information from people who live there about cancer rates — and illnesses in general, not just cancer. We think of radiation as a cancer causing thing, but it also causes many other ailments. Much higher incidences of a whole range of illnesses than they had in
2010, the year before the accident… We’re also working with doctors in
Japan, and some brave doctors are saying that they’ve been threatened — that their hospital rights have been threatened — if you tell your patient this illness is radiation related you’ll lose your right to practice and things like that. So there’s enormous pressure on the medical community to tell the patients that what they’re experiencing is not at all related to radiation. The key is statistics, and the question is when will the statistics be released for mortality, morbidity, and general illnesses… We’re not seeing the data. The medical community now has to file every report that it writes with the
IAEA, the
International Atomic Energy Agency, before it’s issued. So if you’re a hospital, and you’ve got mortality data, you’re not allowed to issue that to the public until those reports have been cleared by the IAEA. Well,
Article II of the IAEA charter is to promote nuclear power. So even if the hospital was conscientious — there’s a lot of political pressure not to be — but even if it was conscientious, there’s another step in the process, and they’ve got to clear an IAEA hurdle before those numbers are released.
It’s truly frightening, the pressure the medical community is undergoing in Japan. Very few of them are willing to tell the truth.
the description to this video reads:
In the first half of
Arnie’s interview, he focuses on the Fukushima Daiichi tragedy from its current status to the
Olympics, legal battles, and volcanoes. He explains that the Cesium 134 found from
Vancouver, BC down to
Portland, OR is a signature of residue radiation from the original explosions in
March 2011. While it is safe to swim on the west coast or run along the shore, Arnie explains why he has chosen not to eat any fish from the
Pacific at this time. The status of nuclear reactors, the industry, and nuclear waste storage in the
United States is the focus of the second half of the interview.
